I recently built a custom cabinet that doubles as an attic access door for a bathroom remodel. Iām fairly new to being a general contractor, with about a year of experience. The interior designer on the project simply told us to ādo something with thisā attic access. Wanting to go above and beyond, I decided to create something uniqueāa cabinet that opens into the attic.
I didnāt charge any extra for this feature, even though I could have just put up a piece of plywood and called it a day. I spent about 60 hours on this project, aiming to add value and a special touch. To ensure the cabinet door stayed shut properly, I installed a small mailbox lock. While itās not the most visually appealing, it was necessary for the cabinetās function.
Now, the interior designer has called the mailbox lock āunacceptable,ā and the client insists we change it. After putting so much effort into this project, Iām frustrated that my work is being dismissed over a detail that was essential for functionality.
You did it all. Amazing work...you're a magician
